Assumptions

Before You Begin

It’s recommended that you backup your Zenoss configuration, either through a VM snapshot (if that’s an option) or via the backup tool (Advanced -> Backups). You may also want to back up your acl_users settings as follows:

Check all the checkboxes under Manager, Owner, and ZenManager. (IMPORTANT! If you do not do this step, you will lock your admin account out of the system!)

Uncheck all the checkboxes under Acquire permission settings?

Check the checkboxes for “Access contents information” and “View” under ZenUser.

Click Save Changes.

When finished, users who are in LDAP are given restricted access (via the ZenNone role) by default, unless they have been granted a different Zenoss role. You can edit Zenoss role assignments via Zope manager -> acl_users -> roleManager.
